Chad Michael Murray and his new Aussie hottie girlfriend Nicky Whelan were very touchy feely last night at the second season premiere of the couple’s digi-series Chosen!

Their relationship seems to be going full speed ahead! In fact, Nicky filled us in on just how close she and CMM have gotten since he started dating her, only one month after breaking off his engagement to Kenzie Dalton!

Chad Michael Murray just LOVES showing off his new GF Nicky Whelan so it came as no surprise when the hottie was all smiles when he walked the red carpet alongside her for the season 2 premiere of digi-series Chosen. And no wonder she's all smiles, too, getting to have her man join her on the show!

We never see Chad Michael Murray NOT looking deliriously happy any more. And that can only mean one thing- some special gurl has captured his heart!

The One Tree Hill star and his new girlfriendNicky Whelan showed up at ABC's 24th Annual Talk Of The Town Gala in Beverly Hills over the weekend.

We applaud the hot new couple for coming out to the gala, a benefit to raise awareness for prostate and breast cancer.

But we're pretty sure awareness isn't the only thing being raised! Chad and Nicky showed quite a lot of PDA for red carpet in general and a charity event in particular. They just can't keep their hands off each other!

Not that we can blame them…

Ch-ch-check out the pics (below) to see the perfect pair show a little heart health!

Afterwards, Cirque du Soleil released a statement about the accident, noting that crew members rushed to Arnaud's aid and immediately transported him to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead sometime later.
